Sorry to hear about your troubles, Smoke. Some people get dealt a real raw hand, but you seem to have done very well for yourself. Aren't you a touring musician?
I am the way that I am because I feel like I have to be the way that I am. I keep my personal life, my professional life, my musical life, and my family life all separate. And if I were to pursue a relationship having been single for about 5 years now, I'd likely have to keep that compartmentalized and separate as well. I have to do this in this way in order to protect the people that I love. Even my friendships are compartmentalized, though no more or lesser than each other. I'm a very open-minded person living in a very closed-minded part of the world where everyone knows everything about everyone because local communities really are that small and have only spiked notably in the last decade.
